α-1 acid glycoprotein is a protein at 43kDa secreted mainly from the liver during acute phase reaction. Its expression is induced by cytokines and corticosteroids.
Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) is also known as orosomucoid (ORM). It is a 41-43 kDa glycoprotein. It is one of the important acute phase proteins found in humans, rats, mice and other species. This immunosuppressive glycoprotein is composed of two isoforms, such as ORM1 and ORM2.
Goat Anti-α1-Acid Glycoprotein antibody is immunospecific for human α1-acid glycoprotein by immunoelectrophoresis versus human serum and α1-acid glycoprotein.
Immunogen
purified human α1-acid glycoprotein
Application
Goat Anti-α1-Acid Glycoprotein antibody can be used for quantitative precipitin assays at 1.5mg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Abberations of orosomucoid 1 (ORM1) is linked with the pharmacokinetics of telmisartan. This plasma protein participates in the binding and transport of several drugs.
Physical form
Supplied as a liquid containing 15mM sodium azide as preservative.

Orosomucoid (ORM, composed of two isoforms, ORM1 and ORM2) has been described as an inducer of M2 macrophages, which are cells that decrease host antibacterial innate immunities. However, it is unknown which phenotypes of M2 macrophages are induced by ORM.
